Dippy: Skill for Claude Code

.claude/skills/check-coverage/SKILL.md

check-coverage is a skill for Claude Code from ldayton/Dippy. It costs 25 tokens per session (417 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A checklist for reviewing how thoroughly a command-line tool is tested. A command-line tool is a program operated by typing instructions in a terminal.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when adding a command or checking an existing command handler and its test file.
Why use it?
It helps reveal missing tests for commands, options, unsafe actions, and unusual inputs before the tool is considered covered.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

check-coverage scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 1mo ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What it actually says

Ensure the handler and tests for $ARGUMENTS provide comprehensive coverage.

1. Gather Documentation

Find documentation for the tool (need at least one source):

tldr:

ls ~/source/tldr/pages/*/$ARGUMENTS*.md
cat ~/source/tldr/pages/*/$ARGUMENTS.md

Local CLI:

$ARGUMENTS --help
man $ARGUMENTS

Stop if neither source exists.

2. Explore Subcommands

For tools with subcommands, recursively explore:

$ARGUMENTS <subcommand> --help
$ARGUMENTS help <subcommand>

Build a mental model of:

  • All subcommands and their actions
  • Which operations are read-only (safe) vs mutate state (unsafe)
  • Global flags that affect parsing
  • Edge cases

3. Review Existing Tests

Read tests/cli/test_$ARGUMENTS.py and check for:

  • Coverage of all subcommands
  • Both safe and unsafe variants of each action
  • Global flag handling
  • Edge cases from the docs

4. Add Missing Tests

Add aspirational test cases for anything missing. Follow existing format:

TESTS = [
    # --- Subcommand group ---
    ("$ARGUMENTS <subcommand> <safe-action>", True),
    ("$ARGUMENTS <subcommand> <unsafe-action>", False),
]

5. Iterate Until Tests Pass

just test

For each failure, determine if the test expectation is correct:

  • If yes, update src/dippy/cli/$ARGUMENTS.py
  • If no, fix the test

6. Verify

just check MUST pass before you're done.

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
